ong family were truly that powerful, then Rong Ling, with his illegitimate son status, would never have been able to rise to power!Hate!How hateful!She clenched her slender hand so tightly, she almost...To have missed out on Rong Ling was the biggest regret for the Rong family. If they were to carelessly miss out on Lin Meng again, then the Rong family children who went out would no longer be considered Rong family members. Because that would truly shame the face of the Rong family, a century-old aristocratic clan! The descendants of the Rong family for a hundred years should not be so foolish, so short-sighted, and so narrow-minded!
Rong Qi Feng took the lead, then followed up with what his aunt had said.
“I support Lin Meng as the head of the family. When she was acting head, I followed her lead. In terms of understanding her abilities, I should know her better than anyone else. During the dangerous times in Rong's family, Lin Meng immediately made the decisive and bold decision to retreat, showing courage, strategy, decisiveness, and efficiency that those who didn't participate could never understand. Her performance at the time was like a female general on the battlefield, directing troops. Following her was like building a new dynasty, every step a feat of achievement. That feeling was amazing and exhilarating. Thinking about it now still sends shivers down my spine. I probably won't be able to experience that same passion and excitement in my lifetime again, reaching that peak. What I want to say is, if it takes any means to keep Lin Meng as the head, I would definitely do everything in my power!”
Rong Qifeng is known for his composure, intelligence, and ability to see the big picture. He's considered one of the most promising members of the younger generation, with high hopes that he will eventually take over as the head of the family. His words also deeply shocked everyone. Those who had followed Lin Mengqian in the past were particularly moved by his speech!
They all expressed their stance, declaring that Rong Qifeng's attitude was their attitude!
These people, are basically the mainstay of the Rong family's new generation. With them taking such a firm stance, others quickly followed suit. The others who remained silent were mostly those close to the woman who might take the position of the eldest aunt, and it was difficult for them to speak up so openly and not give that woman face.
Within a prominent family, relationships are intricate and complex. Sometimes, when making decisions, one must carefully consider multiple perspectives.
At this time, Rong Minlin, who hoped to take her aunt's position, was the first to stand up and speak.
“I, Rong Minlin, am not someone who can’t afford to lose. Throughout my life, I’ve always admired those with true talent and skill. Although there’s a saying that goes “first come, first served,” if one’s skills are inferior, one must accept defeat gracefully. Just take what happened to the Rong family before: Lin Meng stood up against all odds and successfully led the family into retirement. She’s undeniably talented and her contributions are undeniable. Now she’s so assertive, it wouldn’t be right for the eldest aunt not to appoint her as head of the household. My daughters in the Rong family are far from lacking in vision or capability. We would never be petty or short-sighted individuals, and we certainly deserve the title of “excellent.” Therefore, once Lin Meng becomes the head of the household, I intend to work as her assistant. Based on what she revealed earlier, implementing these plans will undoubtedly require a significant number of people. Due to inherent limitations and the overall context, daughters from the Rong family have always lagged behind their male counterparts in business. However, I believe that this time, we daughters will surpass them! Hehehe, eldest aunt, the position of assistant is already reserved for me. If you try to push me out later, I won’t stand for it!”
With a crisp laugh, Rong Minlin's black eyes swept around the room before settling down with an air of casual confidence.
Upon hearing this, Aunt-by-marriage nodded inwardly, knowing that she had called Rong Minlin over for the right reason!
Rong Minlin's words caused many men to chuckle awkwardly, while also serving as a wake-up call for the remaining women.
Lin Meng's abilities are undeniable. Their forceful ascension only serves to make a mockery of themselves. As for these candidates, in terms of ability, they are all quite evenly matched, making it difficult to seriously say that one stands head and shoulders above the rest. Since they are all so close, why not choose Lin Meng And as Rong Minlin said, how could a daughter of the Rong family lack the capacity to accommodate others!
The family is arrogant, sons are like that, daughters are like that too!
The position of elder aunt goes to the most capable person!
Lin Mengzhi's abilities far surpass theirs. Since they have all seen clearly, what else is there to be awkward about, what is there to be unwilling to admit It would be better to learn from Rong Minlin and simply admit defeat, make their stance clear.
Don't be so coy, daughter of the Rong family!
Moreover, Rong Minlin has not provided them with a way out, a win-win solution!
At that moment, Rong Anfen stood up and smiled too.
"We agreed on a first-come, first-served basis! How come this assistant got several spots Minlin's leaving, so the first spot is mine. That means the second one belongs to me!"
The other women got anxious, and almost at the same time stood up, vying to speak.
"The third spot is mine!"
As soon as the words were spoken, he realized that he had joined in with everyone else and they all laughed together.
"The fourth spot is mine!"
They exclaimed again and burst into laughter.
Seeing her smile, the men chuckled along too. Her elder sister-in-law was practically rolling with laughter. She knew, deep down, that all these girls under her were good sorts, sensible and perceptive.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. You guys, all of you have been chosen by me and Mengmeng a long time ago. From now on, you'll all be following us, none of you can escape!"
This remark, spoken loudly, caused everyone to burst into laughter.
After laughing enough, Aunt laughed and waved her hand, signaling everyone to quiet down.
Since everyone agrees to make Lin Meng the eldest aunt, we need to figure out how to get past Rong Ling. Rong Ling and Lin Meng are a united couple; to take on the role of eldest aunt, we need both of them to agree. Otherwise, this matter won't go through!
Everyone listened and nodded.
“I've carefully considered Rong Ling's words. He didn't say them too definitively, so there's a lot of room to maneuver. He asked me to ask the clan members carefully and then tell him, so I'll go and ask each one individually. He's worried that the clan members are not united in their hearts, so I'll alleviate his worries. Even if there are some who are not united in their hearts, they won't be able to cause trouble in the future. So, I'm going to get a petition and have those who agree to Lin Meng's appointment sign it. Then, with this petition, I will solemnly ask Lin Meng to become our matriarch. This way, both Rong Ling and Lin Meng can see how sincere the Rong family truly is!”
"Good!" This time, Rong Qi was the first to blurt out a good word. "What should we do!"
He sighed deeply, a hint of regret in his voice. "In the matter of Rong Ling before, our Rong family acted improperly. I've always felt that we owed him, but Rong Ling lacked nothing and didn't covet anything from our family. Even if we tried to compensate him, we never had the chance. This time with Lin Meng, we must handle things properly. We mustn't further chill the hearts of that couple or those within the clan. Everyone is watching. Time after time, we have wronged Rong Ling and his wife. Those younger generations, seeing this, will inevitably follow suit and also act improperly. If this continues, our Rong family won't stand a chance. This incident serves as an opportunity for our family to make a fresh start, both in spirit and direction!"
"Lao Qi, well said!" Rong Fei Wu heavily agreed.
Room Four also nodded in agreement. "What Lao Qi said is right, the spirit of this clan needs to be properly guided!"
He is in charge of discipline, and he has a deeper understanding of Rong Qi's sigh on this matter.
Others also nodded in agreement.
The Rong family has just weathered a storm and many have broadened their perspectives. Rong Qi's words resonated with many people. As a member of the Rong family, one should naturally hope for the prosperity and future success of the family.
Everyone has the same wish to invite Lin Meng, so signing a petition is just a formality. No one finds it troublesome.
Straight to the point, Auntie was there drafting a petition. Others were in charge of getting people over to sign it. Rong Feiwu, Rong Qi, Rong Qifeng, and Rong Qiru, began to discuss the operational agenda.
There is still one day and two nights left, which seems ample but not quite. Not everyone is staying at the ancestral home. It takes time to contact those people, have them come over to sign, or send someone from here to fly out of town to find them and get their signatures.
A thick stack of petitions was printed out. According to the procedures that Rong Qi and others had discussed, some people took the petitions and went to other places, making sure someone personally signed their names on the petitions. Some people stayed at the ancestral home, while others were responsible for those living in the suburbs closest to the city.
In short, everyone worked together and got busy quickly. That night, the Rong family was very lively and bustling!
Lin Meng was sitting beside Rong Ling at that time, watching the video of Du Caixin's viciousness and remorselessness along with three children. She watched until the end, but her brows furrowed afterward.
Rong Ling went and deleted the video, then turned to Rong Hengduo.
"That's it for this matter. Doudou, your grandma is your grandma, you are you, and I still say the same thing, don't touch my bottom line, do whatever you want. Okay, you three continue playing tank."
Rong Hengduo pursed his lips and nodded heavily.
Lin Meng's gaze swept over Rong Hengduo and called him over.
"Duk Duk, sometimes we can't control what our loved ones do, but we shouldn't torture ourselves by taking responsibility for their mistakes. There's a limit to how much weight one person's shoulders can bear, don't crush yourself."
Rong Hengduo's eyes lit up quickly, looking at Lin Meng. He nodded heavily again, but this time, the corner of his mouth curved up slightly, revealing a hint of ease and joy. He knew that this was his stepmother's consolation and her concern for him.
He knows in his heart who is right and wrong. He knows in his own heart what is light and what is heavy.
Thank you, little aunt!
Lin Meng waved his hand. "Go on, the three of you, do your best!"
The three little boys nodded their heads in unison and left.
In the study, only Lin Meng and Rong Ling remained. Feeling that the three children could probably come down from upstairs now, Lin Meng let out a slight sigh.
Rong Ling just walked over and hugged her. "Unhappy"
"A little bit."
"Am I wrong for making the decision on my own without discussing it with you It was so sudden, the head of the household just decided to quit!"
She shook her head immediately. "No, no, you're not wrong, it's just that I suddenly feel like I'm holding you back!"
"What kind of silly talk is that!" He immediately gently patted her head.
"You're serious!" She scrunched up her nose, her little mouth pouting. "If I didn't accept this position, you should have stepped down as head of the household long ago, right My aunt came to invite me because she wanted to see you, didn't she I have an idea of what's going on, but..."
She lowered her eyes slightly.
He immediately rubbed her head with affection and scolded softly, "What nonsense are you talking about If you didn't have the ability, how could they make you the Clan Matriarch Even if I were more capable, I wouldn't have the power to let the clan choose someone incompetent for that position. You know what the clan is like; don't belittle yourself like this, or else, I'll spank your bottom!"
Lin Meng instinctively shrank her buttocks, pouted at Rong Ling, and acted coquettishly.
"
How could you do that! You're not allowed to scare me!
"
Then don't think about it!
But you can't deny, they came to me for a big reason because of you!
He just smiled faintly. "You and I are originally one, and I'm happy that I can gain face for you, raise your status a little. Little sweetheart, don't get hung up on this, don't belittle yourself. In my opinion, none of the women in this Rong family can compare to you. They can't see it, that's their loss. So you see, in order not to wrong you, and also to prevent them from insulting you, I gave them a test. If they don't come sincerely to invite you this time, then this aunt-in-law, you just don't go. If you go, it would be unfair to you, I feel sorry for you, I can't bear it!"
Lin Meng was coaxed into a "poof" of laughter. After laughing enough, she softly replied.
“Well, alright, I'll listen to you. They aren't sincere at heart, so I won't go. I naturally have other ways to protect this home. Moreover, I felt a bit uncomfortable after watching that video just now. You said those words, and it's only been a few minutes, Du Caiyi has already come down hard on her. What is she relying on She must be confident in her heart, knowing that even if she does this, she can't really take a life for a life. Then look at the attitude of others, it's really infuriating. They didn't even mention your words just now, they only whipped Du Caiyi twenty times. You can't really send her to an insane asylum, but you could bring up your words and scare Du Caiyi a bit. With Du Caiyi's temperament, if she isn't scared properly, she definitely won't give up. Those people, their hearts aren't sincere enough!”
The more she spoke, the angrier she became. She couldn't help but clench her fists.
"Alright, I'm quitting this whole aunt act. Before, I always thought you were part of the Rong family, connected by blood. Relying on others is less reliable than relying on the Rong family – they're closer and more convenient. But now it seems things aren't so simple. Once I get back to my old profession and make some big clients, I'll have connections naturally. If something happens, I can ask those big clients for help, and it'll work out!"
